Effects-Based CyberCOA Optimization Technology & Experiments: Predicting the Impact of Disruptions to BMC3 Workflow

摘要

This report discusses the feasibility of developing advanced, closed- loop, optimal control technology, which will allow a cybercommander to formulate and select Courses of Action (COAs) that balance security objectives against mission effectiveness. The initial formulation includes a plant model (incorporating the cyber-network assignment of processes and information flows to elements of the cyber-network, and a mission model) with a unified objective function incorporating the commander's goals of both Information Assurance & Survivability and traditional military missions.
